Changing how we develop Ladybird

It saddens me to see the communities surrounding free software projects going dark because of the threat posed by AI tools, but I don't know what other solutions there are that would mitigate the threat, particularly when browsers are such a compelling target. Perhaps some kind of trust system a la arxiv.org, where existing users have to vouch for new submissions before a user is themselves trusted? Definitely still vulnerable to abuse, but perhaps less so.

"Gain trust through plausible contributions" is a new angle on AI-produced PRs I haven't seen yet.

Though in retrospect we should have seen it. It's been an angle of attack since forever, it only took a lot of effort.

We need stricter verifications / credentials behind GitHub accounts and PRs.

And this we should have had already before AI.

Stuff like this makes me wish AI had never happened.

An open-source projects losing the ability to find and mentor new maintainers is so disappointing.
